Plants, Art and Science: The Photography of Robert Buelteman

August 25 through November 19, 2006


“Photographers, through their medium, by painting, drawing, and writing with light, arrest moments of time, of flux.  Artists of Buelteman’s caliber may be as much mediums of whatever divine presence exists as were the makers of cathedral windows.

Buelteman, through his unique, innovative use of technology, preserves, in these works, the ephemeral beauty of plants - visual metaphors for human life and accompaniments of its ceremonies.  These images inspire, as have his black-and-white landscapes in the past, more than a little awe.”

-Robert McDonald, Curator and Critic
